Street Lights

City's hoping for a change, I know
Children playing on the street I've grown
Everything looks the same, I don't know
Where the street lights go?

City's hoping for the fall, I know
I feel like the autumn leaves get cold
In the quiet of the night, I hope
To see where the street lights go

And I'm dreaming about leaving home
Leaving parents sitting on the porch
Healing all the scars I used to own
In the dark, finding my own torch

City's hoping for the light, I think
Devil's eyes never are to blink
Drown your sorrow in the river's ink
See the street lights blinding you real quick

City's hoping for more time, I feel
Like the clock is ticking under streets
Silence's getting crushed by passing wheels
People get the street lights of their screens

And I'm dreaming about leaving home
Leaving parents sitting on the porch
Healing all the scars I used to own
In the dark, finding my own torch

And I'm dreaming about leaving home
Leaving parents sitting on the porch
Healing all the scars I used to own
In the dark, finding my own torch

City's hoping for the talk, I love
How the birds sing the peaceful song
Every winter street lights fight the frost
Showing roads through the night so long

City's hoping for the game, I lost
In the rush all my dreams were tossed
All my hope hides in midnight storm
To see where the street lights go

And I'm dreaming about leaving home
Leaving parents sitting on the porch
Healing all the scars I used to own
In the dark, finding my own torch

And I'm dreaming about leaving home
Leaving parents sitting on the porch
Healing all the scars I used to own
In the dark, finding my own torch
